STEVEN CROWDER (HOST): I don't think that we should put Kyle Rittenhouse in the same breath as Dylann Roof and Nikolas Cruz, who I believe was the Parkland shooter. However, let's look at the way these people were arrested and then compare it with Ma'Khia. And see if you can spot the difference. Race has nothing to do with it. 

...

Now, Kyle Rittenhouse, or as I call him, hero - you shoot one pedophile, you're a hero. 

GARRETT MORRISON (CO-HOST): Legend. 

CROWDER: You shoot a couple, you're a legend. No, this was Kyle Rittenhouse --

DAVE LANDAU (CO-HOST): We should be able to hunt them, let's be honest. 

CROWDER: Hunt pedophiles.

LANDAU: Oh I would watch the show. 

CROWDER: Just put Ted Nugent in a chopper.

LANDAU: Oh yeah. 

MORRISON: Bowhunting. 

CROWDER: We got one. 

LANDAU: Every Tuesday on Fox, Nugent hunts pedophiles. To kill a predator

CROWDER: He just has these little one-liners. Have a seat there for a minute.

...

CROWDER: Pedophiles, by the way, pedophiles. Or as Salon calls them, contributing editors.
